Fotograaf Nicolas Reynard omgekomen

French freelance photographer Nicolas Reynard, who had worked for the National Geographic Society several times, died thursday. The seaplane in which he was traveling crashed in the Negro River near Manaus in northern Brazil. Joel Donnet, also a French photographer, and the pilot, a Brazilian, also died in the accident. Reynard was on assignment for three French magazines.

Reynard, who was based in Paris, photographed the August 2003 National Geographic cover story, "Into the Amazon." For the assignment, he spent three and a half months following an expedition through virgin jungle in Brazil's westernmost Amazon Basin. The expedition gathered information on the territory of the Flecheiro tribe, a remote, uncontacted indigenous people living in the far recesses of the Brazilian Amazon.
